The speed of the car passing you is 6 m/s while car is moving 6 m/s behind the car.

<h3>Relative velocity of the car</h3>

The speed of the car passing you is determined by applying relative velocity principle as shown below;

Vr = Va - Vb

Vr = 26 m/s - 32 m/s

Vr = -6 m/s

Thus, the speed of the car passing you is 6 m/s while car is moving 6 m/s behind the car.

What is a heterogeneous mixture and what is a homogeneous mixture?
yuradex [85]
A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that contains two or more distinct substances that you can see. You can see the different part if a heterogeneous mixture. An example of this is a salad. You can see all of the parts. A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that is uniform and you cannot see the different parts. It is still a mixture though. An example of that would be salt water. The water and salt are not chemically combined but you cannot see the salt AND water. It is just one solution.

Janessa got through high school easily because she could remember what her teachers said in class and their tests never covered
VMariaS [17]
<span>CorrectThe direction of the electric field stays the same regardless of the sign of the charges that are free to move in theconductor.Mathematically, you can see that this must be true since the expression you derived for the electric field isindependent of .Physically, this is because the force due to the magnetic field changes sign as well and causes positive charges tomove in the direction (as opposed to pushing negative charges in the direction). Therefore the result isalways the same: positive charges on the side and negative charges on the side. Because the electric fieldgoes from positive to negative charges will always point in the direction (given the original directions of</span>

A car has an acceleration of -5 m/s^2. Describe the car’s motion
AlladinOne [14]

Explanation:

because the acceleration is negative, this indicates a deceleration (or slowing down) . Hence we can say that:

The car is decelerating (slowing down), i.e its velocity is decreasing, at a constant rate of 5m/s².
